NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-According to r.
C. Dun & Co., and f. Russell & Co. the
failures during the past week number for
the United States 1863, Canada 20, total 1873,
against 1S4 last week, and 172 week before,

Henry George and Pow derby Talkof Labo
and the Dangerous Glasses.


NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-Henry George In
the Standard says that the platform to be
adopted at the coming State convention
of the United Labor party, should firmly
and clearly define the position of the par
ty with relation to socialism The efforts
of the socialists to foist their peculiar
ideas upon the party have become so noto-
rious that any attempt to evade the issue
would give the enemies of the party pre-
text to make the charges that they do.
He thinks that the issue should be settled
at once, and is not, therefore, in favor of
excluding socia!stic delegates from the
convention. He would like to see that
element represented by its ablest expo
nents, too, and have the question decided
on its merits. Mr.. George thinks that the
socialists can accomplish more good with
the United Labor party than they can
working separately, but they must aban-
don some of their foreign ideas, or they
can have no place in the movement that
he represents.

Excitement In Texas.

Great excitement has been caused in the
vicinity of Paris, Tex, by the remarkable
recovery Of Mr.. }. E. Corley, who was SO
helpless he could not turn in bed, or raise
his head; everybody said he was dying OF
consumption. A trial bottle of DR.. Kings
New Discovery was sent him. Finding
relief, he bought large bottle and box
ofDr. Kings New Life Pills; by the time
he had taken two boxes of Pills and two
bottles of the Discovery, he was we'll and
had gained in flesh thirty-six pounds.

A QUICK TRIP.
A. Il. Ross Comes AfOot from Smoky
TO HALEY In Fifteen Hours.

A. R. Ross, who has been watch
man at the GalOre-Stormy group of
mines, in Smoky, since the 10th of
August last, came in last Wednesday,
having made the trip on foot, on the
crust, in the remarkably short time of
Is hours. Mr.. Ross left the Galore
Stormy boarding house last Tuesday
morning, at 5 O'Clock, aud walked on
the crust to near Hayes's, at the
junction Of Beaver gulch with Willow
creek. Proceeding up the gulch he
made the head of Kelly gulch by 4
O'Clock in the afternoon. There he
stopped over night, and started for
HALEY about o'clock the next MORN
lug. A snow-storm came up, and for
two hours Mr.. Ross could not see
three feet ahead of him, and could
scarcely breathe. Tying a handker-
chief over his ears he kept as straight
as he could for the Gold Belt, and
succeeded IN striking Croy gulch.
The storm having subsidized by this
time he continued on to HALEY, which
he reached about noon.
He reports considerable snow on
the way, but there are stretches of
bare road miles in length, and he
believes that in couple Of weeks
light rigs can cross the summit and
get to the Galore Stormy, King of
the West, and Carrie Leonard groups.

Life In Other Worlds.

"In tho presence of ime-intervals, :"
says one of the ablest of modern as
tronomers, "seen to be at once infn-
itely great and Infinitely little--great
compared with the duration Of our
earth and little in comparison with
the eternities amid which they are
lost-what reason can we have when
viewing any orb in space from our
small earth, for saying NOW is the
time when that orb is, like our earth,
the abode of life ? Why SHOULD life
on that earth synchronise with life on
this earth ? Are not, on the contrary,
the changes infinitely great against
such coincidence? If, as Helmholtz
has we'll said, the duration Of life on
our earth is but the 'minutest ripple
in the infinite ocean of time and the
duration of life on any other planet Of
like minuteness, what reason can we
have for supposing that those remote,
minute, and no way associated waves
Of life must needs be abreast of each
other on the infinite ocean whose sur
face they scarcely ripple /"
Whether we turn our thoughts to
planet, sun, or galaxy, the law of Ma
ture (recognized as universal within
the domain as yet examined), that the
duration of life in the individual is
indefinitely short compared with the
duration of the type to which the in.
dividual belongs, assures Us, or it
renders it highly probable, that in any
member of any of these orders taken
at random, it is more probable that
life is wanting than that life exists at
the present time. Nevertheless, it is
at least as probable that every men,

No Warrants Before June.

No warrants will be issued at pres
emf, in payment of claims all owed at
the April session of the Board of
County Commissioners. To those
who demand it a certificate certifying
that their claim was allowed will be
issued This will, OF course, be me-
gotiable, and cxchangeable for a
warrant when the debt shall have
been funded which will be about 80
days hence.
The Board has adopted this course
because, first, it is in doubt as to its
authority, under the law of Congress
limiting county Indebtedness in the
Territories, to issue any more war
rants; and, secondly, because there is
cash on hand sufficient to pay all
claims allowed at this session, but
this cash will not be available until
the debt shall be funded.

An In dams Ingenuity.

A Western emigrant having stolen d
horse from an Indian, the latter convicted
him of the offense by a very ingenious
plan. He complained to a judge, who had
the emigrant, with the horse, brought be-
fore him. The prisoner swore that the
animal belonged to him, and that he had
brought it from the East, so that the
judge did not find himself in position to
convict. Hew even about to return the
horse to him, when the Indian said: "If
you will allow me, / will prove that the
animal belongs to me-" Immediately he
pulled off his cloak, and covering the
horses head, asked the emigrant Of which
eye it was blind} The. robber was much
embarrassed at the question, but, never
theless, not to delay the court, he replied
at hazard that it was the right eye. The
Indian, uncovering the head exclaimed:
''The horse is not blind either of the RICH
eye or the left" The judge Immediately
decided that the animal was his.

Flowers of Jewellery.

A leading jewelry store up Broadway
displays some pretty conceits in jeweled
pins. One was a morning glory in
transparent dark enamel with the
natural stripes of the flower repre-
sented by paved diamond work. The
bright, varied hues of the outer surface
are also brought out beautifully by the
enamel. Variegated gold work is COM
ing more and more into use in the line
of fine jewelry, and one scarf pin
shown an engraved bird with outspread
wings, produced a dazzling effect. A
decided oddity in the way of rings is a
bent shark, having outward curving
ends set with companion stones. One
ring of the kind had a bent shark
around the ends, which were set with
diamonds and were joined together
with an emerald set obliquely. The
